C. Install the software by following all instructions as they appear.
NOTES ON TWAIN FOR THE PC: TWAIN is a set of written specifications
developed by a consortium of vendors, that when implemented in software
allows you to acquire data from a peripheral (such as a digital camera or film
scanner) directly into your software application (such as image-editing
software) without leaving the application. Software that incorporates the
specifications is called “TWAIN-compliant.” TWAIN-compliant software
applications should be able to obtain image data from a TWAIN-compliant
source of data, such as the KODAK Driver described in this chapter.
You can install and use the TWAIN-compliant driver for use with ASPI
(Advanced SCSI Programming Interface) host adapter card such as those
available from Adaptec, Inc. running EZ-SCSI 4.0 or later.
This KODAK Driver is intended for use with applications that are ASPI
compliant for Windows, and not for use with applications that are ASPI
compliant for other operating platforms.
With an ASPI compliant SCSI host adapter card, you must install the Win-
dows ASPI files that accompany it. The KODAK Driver for use with ASPI
compliant host adapter cards will not work properly unless these files have
been installed.
The process described in this section automatically:
Creates a subdirectory named “TWAIN” in the Windows directory. (If
you have other TWAIN-compliant devices this subdirectory may already
exist; if so, a new one is not created.)
Creates (if one does not already exist), a “DCSxxx” subdirectory within
the “TWAIN” directory to hold files for the camera.
Places a set of files within the “DCSxxx” subdirectory.
Overwrites any existing DCS drivers already in the directory. This version
of the driver processes images for other Kodak professional cameras
(except for the DCS 100 and 200).
